Battery Maintenance

This is a friendly reminder to keep your batteries healthy by equalizing them each year.

Here is a photo of our house battery bank as we start the procedure...







(You can hear the batteries gurgling if you listen closely! ) 

Here is what our panel looks like as we are doing this procedure ...





...and finally where we are once the procedure is done...


SIDE NOTE- Please look up the proper procedure in your inverter manual. The procedure may be different depending on your brand.

Toad Is Ready

 It has been too hot in the valley to let DH do the work in the driveway so we took the Jeep up to Affordable RV last week to have the set it up for towing.
 I did not stay there to take photos since it was going to be an eleven hour process.

 Here is a photo of the plug of the back of the Damon... (this was already on the coach.)







... the plug on the Jeep...







...and finally a picture of the SMI Stay-in-Play Duo braking system installed.







DH still had to do some work to the unit.  The plug on the Jeep end was not working correctly. He replaced it with a new plug so that the lights will work on the Jeep.
